Is the movie Memphis Belle still parked outside the Palm Springs Air Museum? Is Thunderbird still undergoing maintenance in Oregon? Thanks

I believe the Movie Memphis Belle has been moved inside. The museum has a livestream from a few different angles of their ramp on YouTube it can no longer be seen on. There is also some photos on Flickr of it indoors.

Haven't seen anything lately on Thunderbird but presumably it isn't going anywhere soon.

I can't imagine that they got it completely back together and flying since the Sept 2022 update:

They're going way deep into it. I'd imagine anything related to spars and wing attach is in a holding pattern for now until this rumored impending AD is settled.

I flew in there about 3 weeks ago and it is not in the PSAM compound. It is in storage somewhere across the airport.
